### Step 3: Define Setup Options for the Laser Sensor

If PC-DMIS is configured for the HP-L-20.8 laser sensor at startup, the system looks for the current-mounted probe. If it is not the laser HP-L-20.8 sensor, and a probe changer is present, the system assumes that the sensor is in the probe changer and switches on the warm-up power state. This ensures that the sensor is warmed and ready for measuring.

1. If you see the Probe Utilities dialog box from the previous step, close it.

2. Select Edit | Preferences | Setup, or press F5, to open the Setup Options dialog box.

There is no tab on the Setup Options dialog box for the CWS probe.

3. Select the Laser Sensor tab. The contents of this tab change based on the type of laser sensor that is defined in your LMS license or portlock. Click the link that corresponds to your laser sensor, and follow the instructions there.

Registry Entries for Laser Sensors

A PH10 wrist can automatically switch between a contact probe and a Perceptron probe. These registry entries control that operation as well as the power on a laser sensor warm-up station:

- PICSDifferentialSwitchBit

- WarmUpStationPowerBit
